Alright I retooled my Parent-Child project to 2 forms a parent that shows the parent records and the child records if a parent is selected. Look at screenshot1 where no parents are selected and screenshot2 to see when a parent is selected.
Now the parent form seems to work as it should. Then when I double click a child record or the edit button on the toolbar I get the correct data on the child form using a childformdialog. See screenshot3.
Charles on one of your replies you asked "How are you getting the child records?" This is how I am doing it. I don't know if it is correct but it works.
Private Sub lvChild_BeforeChildFormExecuted(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As MicroFour.StrataFrame.UI.Windows.Forms.ListViewBeforeChildExecuteEventArgs) Handles lvChild.BeforeChildFormExecuted
BbPointsBO1.FillByPrimaryKey(lvChild.SelectedItems(0).Tag)
End Sub
So if what I have is correct, why on the Child Form can I not edit the fields? I set the ManageUIReadOnlyState on the childBO to false but that did not help.
Op's I think I found the correct One IgnoreManageReadOnlyState on the textbox and combobox themselves. Also, the Save and Cancel buttons on the child form also work. So I guess my only question is, Am I getting my child data correctly before going to the child form?????
Thanks so much for all of your help. I feel like I have come a 1000 miles this week end in terms of what I have learned and now I need to step back and see if I can reproduce what I have done........
YEE HA!!!!!!
